The prevalence of sustainability reporting is growing and much of it is converging around the use of the GRI’s sustainability reporting process and GRI G4 & the new GRI Standards released 19 October 2016. GRI is the most widely adopted non-financial reporting framework in the world and is used to help communicate sustainability performance and encourage transparency and accountability. GRI’s Framework is used by leading financial markets institutions like Bloomberg, NASDAQ and Thompson Reuters as the basis of their respective environmental, social and governance (ESG) information offerings. It is also increasingly used by governments and stock exchanges as a reporting requirement. Ten governments (Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, United States) have a formal reference to GRI in their governmental corporate responsibility guidance documents and/or policies.
